TEAM LAB

• teamLab (f.  2001,  Tokyo,  by  Toshiyuki  Inoko)  is  an  interdisciplinary  group  of  ultra-technologists 
• whose  collaborative  practice  seeks  to  navigate  the  confluence  of  art,  technology,  design  and  the  natural world. 
• Rooted in the tradition of ancient Japanese Art and contemporary forms of anime,
• teamLab operates from a distinctly Japanese sense of spatial recognition, investigating human behavior in the information era and proposing innovative models for societal development. 
• teamLab’s works are in the permanent collection of Borusan Contemporary, Istanbul; The Asian Art Museum, San Francisco; The Asia Society Museum, New York; Art Gallery of South Australia, Adelaide; and Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney. They have been the subject of numerous exhibitions worldwide; in 2015, a projection work was exhibited on the façade of the Grand Palais, Paris.

This looks magical! looks like a sensory room. 

<<---this reminds me of the ocean, imagine being underneath that, i wish that was my room

OMG ! this one if my favorite! it looks like a magical beautiful pond with all sorts of beautiful colored fish and that girl as a mermaid.

NEGATIVE SPACE

Negative space, in art, is the space around and between the subject(s) of an image. Negative spacemay be most evident when the space around a subject, not the subject itself, forms an interesting or artistically relevant shape, and such space occasionally is used to artistic effect as the "real" subject of an image.

NOMA BAR:

Hiroko Kubota

HIROKO KUBOTA

• Hiroko Kubota, a Japanese embroidery artist
• started with a simple request from her son he wanted his shirts adorned with cats.
•  Hiroko has a shop on Etsy under the name Go!Go!5
• inspired by designs from the old days which used the applique needlework technique on shirt pockets for children
• did not learn embroidery formally. I started dressmaking after her child was born. In the beginning, she sold handmade accessories through the internet. 
• I always use a reference picture for the embroidery. her clients provide her with the cat images they want on their shirts.
• other than cats she has embroidered dogs, rabbit, gold fish, crocodile and a frog .
• Hiroko doesn't consider her embroidery to be art because the shirts are meant to be sold to the people who order them. she says: "You could’ve called it art if that wasn’t the case. Well, I don’t know much about these things, I am just a simple woman who started embroidering cats on shirts for her son."

<------- I once had a kitty, i named it YUI, but i had to get rid of her and looked exactly like this kitten. it makes so sad.

this cat is adorbs!!!!! i think she did a really good job with picking a blue shirt with a gray cat is very settle.

----------->>>>>>>>

<---------i like how this one is facing side ways it adds more of a 3D effect one it.

 <<---------she also embroidered some gold, it was recommended by one of her clients.

 <<--------I like this one is different from the other embroidery, because the shirts looked ripped, 

------->>

This little dog is adorable and i would love to have a dog like this one i think they are so cute, i have to pit-bulls but they are gigantic they are almost the same size as me.

<<-----Hiroko started with only embroidering cats on shirts but when she went viral her clients would send her images for customize shirts.

<---- she got asked to embroider dogs. this is one of her non-cat work












----------->> she also embroidered this dog and the two ones at the top if this blogs.

CHUCK CLOSE

 -American painter/artist and photographer

-achieved fame as a photorealist, through his massive-scale portraits

-Style: drawing and painting techniques as ink, graphite, pastel, watercolor, conté crayon, finger painting, and stamp-pad ink on paper; printmaking techniques, such as Mezzotint, etching, woodcuts, linocuts, and silkscreens; as well as handmade paper collage, Polaroid photographs, Daguerreotypes, and Jacquard tapestries.

 <----- I love the color contrast the compliment each other well, also this girl kind of looks like me. not only is it in grids which is really cool I like how each block almost has a different type of pattern.

 <--- I like this image because it shows how Close does his massive portraits, you can see his setup.

<---- I like this one,again for almost the same reason as the one above, when they say massive portraits its MASSIVE I mean look at the portrait compared to that lady its pretty big.

<--- same with this one, just look at how big they are, i can't imagine all the time spent on these art!!!!! it must take a lot of patience, which I DON'T HAVE!

                                   SALLY HEWETT

• sally's practice is centered around beauty and ugliness, and how each person interprets bodies differently

• she represents bodies by using: fabrics,stitching,stitching and embroidery, she is also curious if using this materials affect how we the work

• her favorite type of bodies, are the ones that have a history meaning bodies that have stretch marks,freckles,scares,bruises,spots,pigmentation, veins to her does are bodies that have marks of life

• she is also interested in bodies that haven't altered, she calls it " altered by man rather than by life"

• some of her art which has only one boob represents her grandma's story, her grandma had breast cancer and had one of her breast removed, her grandma gave her some ideas because she was proud of her scar and how beautiful she found her stitching scars.

 

* I like this one because i love how she used the silver color for the stretch marks, it makes the stretch marks look more fancy and expensive.


------------------------------------------------------->>>
I love how she added texture to the booty, it seems really real! i also like that she added some blemish to the bottom checks, they look like pimples, i think thats so real because people won't admit it but our body is not perfect i know at one point in life someone will end up with some marks or blemish down there, its the nature of the body.



^ this boob looks like it had some surgery and it has stitches that might still be healing.





<------- i feel like maybe this was a plastic surgery gone wrong or maybe the person who had the surgery is now old and the only thing that aren't sagging are her fake boobs, all the king around are sagging and causing it to misshape, thats just my crazy imagination,lol!

  now this one does look like real stretch marks, in fact they look like my stretch marks.
